This is mother and daughter

Maybe she's an absurd mother, but with all the hostility she sees at Vivian for the first time, it's certain that this is a real mother.
Parents have an innate sensitivity to their children, and if you think you have a talent for acting that can fool your parents, you'd be wrong - as long as they love you, even the dullest of fathers can detect what's bothering them. .
But when this sensitive mother confronts you tit for tat, you are miserable. She is best at playing tricks with you quietly, and pretending to know nothing, avoiding everything, making people laugh and cry. She loves you and doesn't allow you to sincerely fight back against her. Your little counterattack really hurts her heart seriously. As she responded when she heard her daughter say "I love you, but I'm gay" to herself: "How can you put these two things together, you say you love me, but you're breaking my heart."
So don't Busy fighting, and when this mother learns that smashing face and being brave enough to express love is such a blessing—not as bad as she thought, she'll turn to you and say, LOVE! Go for it! Because she is a mother, she loves you too, and wants her children to be happy.
Several mother-daughter fights in the movie made me laugh along, as if I saw my mother. They are all good at being quiet and aggressive, and a little bit of trouble is enough for them to establish evidence, and then sternly interrogate - it seems that mothers like to start with: "What does he do?" The dinner table is indeed a battlefield for mothers. I remember when I said at the dinner table that I wanted to move out with a girl, my mother kept asking questions like: "What does she do?" "How old is she?" "Where are you from?" "How did you meet?" ?"... The funniest thing is that she actually asked, "Is she good-looking?"
- Mom, no one is going to kidnap your daughter, your love, the children have received. It may be indigestible or unpalatable for a while - but, this is mother and daughter.

    One star for a very inspirational script. The other four stars all go to Wil, who is more brilliant than the script. [After watching "Lan Yu", I want to watch this movie inexplicably. Many scenes are still fresh in my memory, such as the game they played "If I call you down, you will fall down". Sweet to die for. When Wil came out to his mother, he was in Chinese. Unlike ordinary phrases or simple Chinese words, she insisted on speaking in Chinese. She wants to do it in a close way with her mother. "Mom, I love you, I'm gay." "How can you say these two things in one breath. Saying you love me and hurting my heart like that. I'm not a bad mother, my daughter can't be gay ." "Then I probably shouldn't be your daughter." 2019.3.11】
